Charles Weger, serving his time in prison for the
infamous
Starved Rock Murders,
is denied clemency in 2007. *One Concern: The Oetting family was denied a "three year set" - one option that the PRB has to give to victims families. They apparently cited some possible "new evidence" in his case. We note this as problematic because it is not EVER up to the PRB to determine the important questions of Guilt or Innocence. They are only allowed to evaluate the criteria regarding parole for the pre-1978 cases in their enabling statutes and assume complete guilt of the offender. Any questions about Weger's guilt can only be addressed in a Court of Law. We urge the PRB to reinstate the three year set for this family that they usually had, especially since they voted unanimously to deny him early release. ***
The family of the victim killed by
Jose
Correa, #N11113, is planning ahead already for 6 years from now when
his determinate sentence makes him eligible for release. This is not a
"parole" case because it is post-1978 and the rules for his release are
fixed and less discretionary by the PRB. They will only monitor his and
evaluate his good time credits.
An Urgent Appeal to Block Release of Illinois Cop Attempted Murderers: I am asking for your assistance in circulating the attached petitions, obtaining signatures from police officers and citizens protesting the possibility of parole for the offender convicted of the Attempted Murder of Chicago Police Officer Eddie Jackson VCD Prostitution Unit on 14 October 1977. Please return the signed petitions to me at the FOP 1412 W Washington Blvd Chicago, IL 60607 or Police Mail Unit 541 by 20 January 2010. If you have any questions regarding this matter please call me at the FOP Office 312 733 - 7776
